" Sam's lost the element of surprise." Jacob said while he sat on a couch speaking to everyone, but Bella and Mom since they didn't want Bella to hear. I stood with Leah and Seth soaking in every detail hearing the plan their former leader had planned." and he doesn't want to take you on outnumbered, so he's not gonna come at you head on. He's got the place surrounded and he'll wait for his opportunity."

" We won't get through without a fight."

" We're fighting ?" I asked seeing Carlisle shake his head.

I didn't mind fighting. Matter of fact, I would be happy to punch Sam a couple times and finally be in the action compared to being the one protected.

" No fights. We won't be the ones to break the treaty."

" The treaty is void, at least in Sam's mind." Jacob warned.

" Not in ours."

" Carlisle, no one's hunted for weeks." Dad said when I snapped my fingers. An idea came into my head. A risky one, but I was willing to do it if it mean't protecting the ones I loved.

" I can use my powers to teleport you guys far to feed and return back."

" That's risky. We'll make due." Esme calmly spoke giving me a smile.

" You've done us a great service, Jacob. Thank you." Carlisle said when Mom came into the room. She had a smile on her face and turned to look at the three and me.

" Follow me." She said to the three wolves and I. We all moved following her into the hallway seeing she turned around. I could tell how exhausted Mom was and how desperate she needed to hunt.

" Jacob, Leah. I know you guys usual sleep outside, but if you need a bed, we have a guest room."

" Thank you." They both said and left to go patrol.

Mom turned to Seth and I a bit weary. " Don't make me regret it." She said and I frowned looking over to Seth seeing he was confused too.

" Regret what ?" I asked looking back to Mom's face seeing she playfully rolled her eyes.

" I'm letting Seth move in with you." She said and my eyes widen at her sudden decision." Don't make me regret the decision."

" Okay, let me go get my room ready then." I said leaving Seth's side and going to my room alone. I pulled my book out and scanned with my eyes about a spell quickly" Tolle Pulmentum."

Soon my clothes started to float and go into the shelves before closing neatly. My clothes also divided from clean and dirt while my bed was made neatly and organized. My balcony doors shut and everything was done.

" Man, I wish I had that when I was a kid." I said before going to my closet and pulling out an old blanket and pillows. I placed it on the bed for whenever Seth would want to sleep. When the sun settled, I came downstairs the same time Seth walked in and smiled. 

Esme came in walking straight to Seth." Are you hungry by any chance, Seth ?"

" No. I'm fine." Seth said, but I knew otherwise he was. He was just to nervous to ask or Leah must have said something. When Seth looked up to me, I nodded my head giving a small that everything was okay." Actually, a sandwich sounds good."

" Okay, any for you dear ?"

" Yes, please." I said coming completely down the stairs and smiled hugging Seth. I missed these moments. These moments were my favorite. 

He hugged me back and kissed the side of my head with a smile," You okay, beautiful ?"

" No." I said looking up to him with tormented eyes.

 I took a deep breath unwrapping my arms around him and crossed my arms over my chest. I took one glance to see my family was to far away to hear and busy watching over Bella, while she slept.

" I'm worried sick. I'm worried sick that something bad is going to happen with the wolves now coming after her and the baby."

" Nothing bad is going to happen ?"

" I hope you're right. I need to hear more things like that. I'm just tired of hearing everyone argue and bitch about the situation. It's not that hard to understand."

" She's in pain." Seth said and I looked over to see my family looking concern at the couch. I walked over to see Bella was still sleeping, but her eye brows creased and she had a bit of cold sweats.

" Must be a bad dream."

" You better not wake her up."

" Hush it, Rosalie." Edward hissed which made Mom glare at him. 

I closed my eyes hating the fighting before grabbing my wand from her boot." I know a spell that can soothe pain. Can I do it ?"

" Yes." Edward and Mom said to each other before glaring at one another. It was like a competition. See who can protect Bella more and it made me want to pull my hair out. S

I nodded looking over to Bella." Auferat Dolor." Just as I said it, Bella's face turned into a smile and she seemed to be falling deeper into slumber. Edward smiled and Mom looked to me with a proud nod. 

" Guys." Emmett called out having everyone's attention. Edward, Jacob, Seth, and I walked over to the window seeing the black forest." I think I see something."

" I can hear their thought. I just can't see them either."

" Wait. Lumos." I said using my wand to turn every light off in the house. The boy all looked to me confused before I said yet another spell." Homenum revelio."

Just like a heat scanner would do everyone saw where each wolf was at. I gasped slightly seeing how outnumbered we were. Seth felt my tension and reached over grabbing my hand and squeezing it tightly. I broke night staying up without sleep and helped get research on the baby. Seth sat next tome half reading a book because his eyes drooped and he was falling faster asleep. He only woke up when Edward angrily got out of his seat and left without another word.

I huffed slightly looking straight ahead. My mind was on a roller coaster. I didn't like Edward upset, but here it was. I understood why. The possibility of Bella making it was very slim. I felt exhausted, but refused to eat or sleep. I read spells in my head and practiced them. I caught sight of Esme outside handing sandwiches to Seth, Leah and Jacob.

Seth was the first to move and took a sandwich with a big smile on his face. It made me smile a bit seeing how goofy he was. Leah, however, looked to Esme with a slight glare before turning back around Jacob took both sandwiches thanking her. I saw black spots in her vision and grabbed a hold on the wall before breathing in four times. I opened my eyes seeing the spots gone, but did not sleep or eat. All I could do was keep practicing.
